8 Motivators To Get You Through Finals Week
We all know we could use some motivation.
With finals coming up in the next few weeks for most college students, many are running low on fuel. I know I'm ready to be finished with this semester. I thought I could remind you all of some of the reasons to push through and finish the semester strong. Once you get through finals you can look forward to all of these things:
1. SUMMERTIME
"Summertime and the livin' is easy!" -Ella Fitzgerald
Get ready to have the best summer of your life! There are so many opportunities to make this summer the best yet. Get out and try new things, make some great memories.
2. You'll Get To See Friends From Home
This is probably the biggest motivation for me personally to get through finals. I miss my best friend so much!! I cannot wait to see her all the time and spend time catching up. College is busy and summer is a time to build up those long-distance friendships.
3. You Can Make Some Money
Another motivator is the chance to make a lot of money! If you choose, you can work a ton of hours at your job or even multiple jobs. Be smart and save money for after college, but also have fun and splurge on yourself every once in a while. Go on that shopping trip with your best friends and get a good lunch afterward.
4. No More Homework
Quite possibly the best part about finals week being over is... NO MORE HOMEWORK! YAY!!! I'm so done with doing homework every day and cannot wait for summer and having a lot more free time. Homework takes up so much of my time at school and a lot of it is pointless to work.
5. You'll Get To Hang With Your Family
I'm also excited to hang out with my family a lot. I'm really close to my parents and grandparents (who live two doors up from us) so I look forward to visiting with them when I'm free. Family time is important to me and during the school semesters I hardly ever get to see my family. Summer is the time to enjoy the time I have left living with them!
6. You'll Get To Play With Your Pets
I know one of everyone's favorite parts about going home is getting to cuddle up with their pets. I have my bunny, Thumper at school with me but my dog, Jingles lives at home. Even though he's a brat, (haha) it will still be nice to play with him. Most people's dogs and other pets are friendlier than mine so I'm sure you can expect to have lots of fun with them!
7. You Can Plan A Vacation
Summer is the best time to take a vacation, of course. I can't wait to plan something fun with either my fiancé, my family, or my friends to travel somewhere new. Utilize sites like TripAdvisor to help you find the best place to go with the most affordable attractions and hotels. Be bold and try somewhere you've never been before!
8. You'll Have Time To Binge Netflix
Lots of free time means lots of Netflix! I plan on bingeing Jane the Virgin this summer since I've only had time to watch the first five episodes this semester. Some of my other favorites are The Office (duh!!) and Grey's Anatomy. Browse what shows are available and find one you like or rewatch your favorite series!
I hope I've given you a little bit of motivation with these things to look forward to! YOU CAN DO IT! We are almost there, just push through and you'll be glad later!
